The leader of the Serbian party "For Freedom, Justice and Survival", Nenad Rašić, says that the Serbian List is trying to manipulate the February 9 election process by trying to annul his party's votes. He says that this party has offered huge sums of money to commissioners to reduce the number of votes and thus lose the mandate of an MP who won the election.
Regarding this, Rashic declares that he has also notified the Central Election Commission on Wednesday so that, as he says, vigilance can be increased at the Municipal Vote Counting Centers.
Rašić, who is currently the Minister for Communities and Returns, said in an interview with KosovaPress that the Serbian List wants to take the ten seats reserved in the Assembly for Kosovo Serbs at all costs.
According to preliminary results from the CEC for the February 9 elections, Nenad Rašić's party won 3913 votes, while the Serbian List won 37 votes.
"Anyone who knows how to count and sees how many additional votes the Serbian List can have still cannot manage to take away the mandate we have won or are very close to winning. In this case, since they cannot have enough votes, then let's reduce their votes in order to surpass them. A real concept is that they want to take the ten seats at all costs, and it comes to the conclusion that the only way is to cancel the votes of Rasic. Now they have continuous efforts to do so," Rashic emphasizes.
According to him, the Serbian List has offered staggering sums to his party's commissioners to manipulate his party's votes in order to secure absolute power.
"These are staggering amounts because in these circumstances when that structure, as we know that the Serbian List is a radical political structure and other elements. Surely money, like for any normal person, does not have the same value because they have too much, they can give it as much as you want. When I saw that it was an action and not an individual case, I decided to present this case to the CEC. I ask the CEC and their officials to be more careful and vigilant and to follow the vote counting in each counting center more closely. One concept that has scared me is that this year there is not one vote counting center but 38 centers in each municipality", he says.
He states that of the 35 votes that the Serbian List received in the February 9 elections, half of them are Kosovo Serbs who came from Serbia to vote in an organized manner.
However, Rashic says that in the February 9 elections they received around four thousand votes and, according to him, based on the circumstances on the ground, this is a success for them.
Kosovo held parliamentary elections on February 9.
The Central Election Commission has counted 99.57 percent of the votes from 2,522 polling centers, out of a total of 2.533, according to which the Vetëvendosje Movement continues to lead with 40.83 percent or 340 thousand 690 votes.
The Democratic Party of Kosovo ranks second with 22.03 percent or 184 thousand 661 votes, the Democratic League of Kosovo third with 17.61 percent or 146 thousand 815 votes.
AAK-NISMA-Conservatives-Intellectuals-Ideal is ranked fourth with 7.47 percent or 62 thousand 172 votes./E.Zeqiri
